The Future of Christianity

Alister E. McGrath

Paperback 2001-12-06

This witty yet highly informed book deals with issues such as the crisis in confidence within western Christianity, the impact of postmodernity on Christianity, and the shift in numerical strength from the west to Africa and Asia. McGrath questions whether traditional Protestant denominations are likely to survive in their present form, and charts the rise of post-denominational Christianity. He explores the impact of a consumer culture, and the gulf that has opened up between academic theology and the life of the church. 176 pages, from Blackwell.
